Run out of fuel in Kentchurch (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to refill your car. They will be able to deal with the standard problems which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel will contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances fairly simply.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
